My Response To The Controversy: DJI Action 2 Review Revisisted

I used to be a regular Fstoppers visitor, so instantly recognized him.
Nice video!

You're welcome!

I have to agree with you the video from the iPhone 13 was better than the Action 2. I have an iPhone X which takes great videos and photos if I'm holding it in my hand. I have a phone mount for a tripod but it blocks part of the screen so it makes it hard to frame a shot. Because of this I use an Action camera for most of the video I shot, except for something spontaneous that might pop up. I have mixed emotions about the modular system but can see some uses for it. I don't think I need the front facing screen, don't really use the one on the OA that i bought recently so I will probably wait until the end of Nov when the Power pack combo is released, why both combos weren't released at the same time I guess I'll never know.

Unless you need the smaller size the OA is still really good.

I guess I don't get why he felt a controversy.  He made a valid point and it was his video.  I thought his review was good.

People kicked off in the comments I think.

I didn't look at comments.  I guess I see.  Hard to compare an action camera to your phone.  But he did!

If I tried to explain that fruit X was sweeter than fruit Y and you’d never had either it wouldn’t help. But if I compare a camera to a very popular camera you might have a better idea.

I have an OA that I bought about a month ago when they were selling for $199.95 I really like it. It's a much nicer camera that my Hero Black 6 which takes nice video and photos but the touch screen has a mind of it's own. I'm considering selling to offset the the cost of an Action 2
